Kerala's 7 largest listed cities add up to roughly 23.8 million people. Kozhikode (4.4 million), Malappuram (4.3 million) and Thrissur (3.7 million) lead the list, with 4 other cities behind them. Most figures are 2025 estimates and should be read as approximate.
Applying state-level hospital-bed ratios to these populations gives about 63,000 hospital beds, including some 3,100 ICU beds, in an estimated 2,100 hospitals (roughly 810 public and 1,300 private). Kerala averages 2.63 beds per 1,000 people against about 1.39 for India, and about 62% of its beds are private.
On the national ratio of one practising doctor per 811 people, these cities would have about 29,000 doctors and 53,000 nurses and midwives across all systems of medicine. Specialist head-counts are not published city by city, so these figures show overall scale rather than the number of any one speciality.
Kerala has infant mortality of 8 per 1,000 live births (India: 24) and modelled life expectancy of about 78.0 years (India: about 72). This directory lists 101 providers across these cities, and every city below has its own page linking to 15 speciality pages with maps, qualifications to check and answers to common questions.
